US Department of HUD

ORGANIZED CRIME TELLS HUD
INSPECTOR GENERAL STAY AWAY FROM LOW INCOME PROGRAMS


Review of Statements Concerning Threats to US Department of HUD Inspector General

On or about May, 1990 Chris Walters visited Washington D.C. and paid a visit to the office of HUD Inspector General Paul Adams. Mr. Adams introducted Chris Walters to his investigator a Mr. Thad Stanuil.

During the discussion Mr. Thad Stanuil indicated he was told by "powerful persons" to stay away from homeless programs. Mr. Stanuil stated his office would not recieve complaints or investigate matters related to homeless shelters as they related to the Stewart McKinney Homeless Assistance Program under Title 42 USCS 11301.

Mr. Stanuil indicated he would comply with these instructions to keep from having his employment terminated.

The HUD Inspector general is stating a powerful person is engaged in preventing his office from enforcing the laws of the US for the purpose of violating Title 18 USCS 372 Conspiracy to defraud US. Mr. Stanuil did state he would be interested in seeing reports from Chris Walters about his surveys of homeless shelters.

In 1991 Congressman Gary Condit office provided Chris Walters a copy of a Congressional Report on Housing and Homeless. The report contains extensive details of persons defrauded low income housing programs and stood to profit through obstruction of justice of the office of HUD Inspector General. The principals involved had an obvious interest in taking out law enforcement before the crimes were committed.

The appended report from the City of Portland Police Department undercover report shows drug trafficking at a state or federally funded shelter known as "Recovery Inn". Similar drug trafficking activities occured throughout Oregon homeless shelters in the 1980's and 1990's. The key to operating these facilities was making sure law enforcement was powerless to act.

Seattle, Portland, Las Vegas, and other cities appear to have homeless shelters operated as public nusiances. The purpose of such a situation was to destroy business property values such as occured in Portland's Old Town. When the property values were low enough it was purchased very cheaply by various land speculators.

The article from Reader's Digest magazine in the appendix also supports the position that homeless programs were heavily involved in frauds. The position of experts is appended.
